"He finally told me that when we were talking, and I said, ‘You can’t do that’," Washington said. "He’s got a different workload this year. When you are a reliever and you only have to pitch an inning or so, you can pitch through some soreness, but when you are a starter, it’s a different situation. You can make it worse. It’s something that comes with experience. Now that he has the experience of going through this and knowing the situation, hopefully it won’t happen again. Thank God it wasn’t more serious."

Ogando is on the 15-day disabled list with biceps tendinitis.

Revere has been limited to six starts against left-handed pitchers this season, but only two of the four games he has sat out have been against lefties. 

Revere told the Philadelphia Inquirer Saturday that he has been getting time off to work on his swing. Revere, who has just two extra-base hits in 118 at-bats, said he is trying to work on driving the ball.

"We've kind of been talking and going back to my old films from the minor leagues with the Twins and trying to find that power stroke," Revere said. "I know back then I was a 10-triple guy, it was gap-to-gap with everything, and they want me to get back to that and I do too. That’s the stuff I’m working on."

O'Flaherty was placed on the 15-day disabled list earlier in the day, and he is expected to visit Dr. James Andrews in the next few days.

Andrews is famous for performing Tommy John surgery on torn UCLs, though the team has not confirmed that the procedure will be necessary for O'Flaherty. 

Garcia was placed on the disabled list Saturday, with the same injury that sidelined him twice last season. Garcia will see a specialist in the next few days to determine the course of action, but he did say that the injury seems more serious this time than it did last season. He also admitted to trying to pitch through it in his last three outings.

"There's pain. There's a lot more pain than last year," he said. "It started three starts ago. I was feeling great up to that point. Just tried to take care of it, doing little things here or there, and it went downhill. It got worse and worse. I'm very concerned. I'm very concerned."

Garcia is set to see Dr. James Andrews next week. 

Ellis is expected to play six innings in Double-A Saturday as part of his minor-league rehab assignment. He has been out since late April with a right quad strain.  

Lilly's role has yet to be determined, but it seems likely that he will pitch out of the bullpen to start.
